The release date for Bethesda’s new Elder Scrolls books has been delayed.
Last October, Bethesda announced they were teaming up with Titan Books to publish a new series of hardcover Elder Scrolls books:
- The Elder Scrolls Online: Tales of Tamriel (a two volume set)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – The Skyrim Library (a three volume set)
According to Omar Khan, series editor:
Using art and text from Bethesda, we were able craft these amazing tomes that truly showcase the exceptionally well-written and in-depth lore that is the foundation of The Elder Scrolls.

The Elder Scrolls books are geared towards fans of the gaming franchise, and are being published by Titan Books — an industry leader in science fiction, art, and gaming tie-ins.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Tales of Tamriel will feature a collection of in-game lore and over 100 pieces of specially commissioned artwork. The two volume set provides in-depth coverage of the ongoing war between the three factions.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – The Skyrim Library will reprint all the in-game texts found throughout the Skyrim video game. The three volumes will mark the first time all texts are brought together in one collection.
